Looks like a great product! I am also working on a similar product (https://cdevframework.io) in the same space, but I am focusing only on Python at the moment.

Are you using a custom IaaC management tool for the deployments, or is it compiling down to something like Aws Cloudformation or Terraform Providers?

Stacktape is built on top of AWS Cloudformation.

We also use CF infrastructure modules, CF custom resources and aws-sdk for certain features and integration.

We're also trying to smooth out some of the rough edges of Cloudformation (for example translating some of the crypting CF errors into a more developer-friendly errors).

Also, since CF can be pretty slow in some cases, we have a "fast deploy" mode that avoids CF and deploys (lambda functions and containers) way faster.
